Workers at Israeli Checkpoints

There are hundreds of Israeli checkpoints in the West Bank and 11 checkpoints for those with Israeli government permission to work
in the land that is regarded by most governments as Israel.
They are excused as normal "border" control points or as ways to prevent terrorist attacks. About 40,000 workers have
the "papers" that allow them to go throught the checkpoints. Conditions vary, but accounts of overcrowding and humiliation are common.
U.S. trade unions have yet to speak out about the checkpoints and conditions at the checkpoints.
